ONE/Northwest, in collaboration with the Seattle and Portland Plone communities, is proud to be your host organization this year, and we're excited to welcome you all to our beautiful city on the shores of Puget Sound.

We are still in the process of putting together all of the details, and will be publishing a lot more information here soon.  We are committed to making this the most open, transparent, community-organized Plone Conference ever, and we're going to need lots of help from you to do it!

What you can expect

• Three full days of talks, tutorials and workshops for Plone developers, folks implementing Plone in their organizations and people who are new to the Plone community.  We will feature both technical and non-technical talks covering the past, present and future of Plone and its vibrant community.

• A beautiful venue in a large park in the heart of Seattle, steps from lodging, food and entertainment.

• Reliable wireless access. ;-)
• Registration will open in early July.  Early bird registration for all three days will be $250.  After August 25th, registration will be $300.
• There will likely be one or more 1-2 day training events before the Plone Conference, and a 2-day Sprint after the conference.  Details TBA.

• The draft agenda and a call for presentations
• Interesting information from our pre-planning Plone Conference Survey
• Registration information
• Sponsorship information
• Exciting surprises yet to be revealed!

• Mark your calendar. 
• Think about talks you'd like to give -- or attend! 
• Get excited!
